Penzance to Bath via Tintagel

1/4/2014

Next day we left early for Bath as we were meeting Marita and Ell. Our only stop was at Tintagel. This is a beautiful little town with some very old 16th century buildings. The old Post Office was open with it’s roof rippling from age. Inside there were the low ceilings with wooden struts, stone floors and whitewashed walls. It was a very cosy place.

Then for the main Tintagel attraction...the castle. We had a steep, hot walk which presented with stunning views of the coast and we were fooled for a minute by the rather gaudy brick castle.....the hotel...seen high on the hill.

Fortunately we were then taken down steps and up the other side...which was very good for the constitution…. to the ruins. Wonderful views made the steep climb worth it. We were able to take an easier shorter route back to the roadway back. I'll leave the photos to do the talking.

We were soon in the car and on our way. But it was to be another 4 hours before we made it to Bath.
